Abstract

Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease caused by microorganisms resulting in progressive damage of periodontal tissue. One of the main pathogens is Porphyromonas gingivalis. Periodontal disease can be treated with antibiotics but they have side effects and cause bacterial resistance. Herbal plants that can be used as alternative medicine, inter alia, lemon peel (Citrus limon (L.) Osbeck). Its active compounds such as flavonoids, tannins, steroids, and triterpenoids have antibacterial effects. This study aimed to determine the antibacterial effectiveness of the ethanolic extract of lemon peel (Citrus limon (L.) Osbeck) against Porphyromonas gingivalis in several concentrations of 0.625%, 1.25%, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%. The method used in this study was the broth microdilution test to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) based on the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). The results showed that MIC was at a concentration of 2.5% with an inhibition result of 75.80% and MBC at a concentration of 10% with an inhibition result of 99.53%. In conclusion, lemon peel extract (Citrus limon (L.) Osbeck) had antibacterial effectiveness against Porphyromonas gingivalis.
